I'm having problems with a Joomla install (problem exists in both 1.5.13 and 1.5.15) that won't order articles in a category or section blog layout.
I've tried setting the sort order on the layout manually to all the different sort options but it has no effect.
Ordering on the front page works fine.
Any ideas?

If a Category is tuned to be shown in several columns (f.e. 2), but only 1 column fits in template, the soring may be broken.

You need to Enable Custom Ordering...

In the options for the menu item (i.e. when you click the item name), look on the right hand side and click "Parameters (Advanced)".
You should set Category Order to "No, order by Primary Order only" and Primary Order to "Default" (or "Most recent first" if that doesn't work).
